The news that the Supreme Court of the United States had come to the disputed decision of blocking Donald Trump’s executive order stripping immigrants from the right to stay in the country was debated all over the country. Questions about the legal system, the nature and origin of social problems and the soul of the nation were evoked, but also about authoritarianism, betrayal, violation of human rights and the Constitution of their country. Dems won, but the taste was bitter.

It’s impossible for me not to remember the participation of celebrities in anti-immigration marches in Britain, and comments made to me from Turkish contact against Muslims, or even the situation with Ukrainians and Russians, who fight for historical property and reasons beyond the average person’s comprehension.

I believe that the idea that sells about the United States is that of an open, free world. This trend of MAGA philosophy with an entire mechanism of legislation behind it and officers following command makes up for a disturbing world geopolitics — many have been pointing out.

But the idea of progressive politics embraces diversity. We look at claims that DEI ruined the world, and we laugh with pure rage. We are children of enslaved people, we have suffered violence for our sexual orientation, we have been bullied for our social skills and looks, we have been left behind for not having financial capital in countless situations since social life began to get more eventful.

The whole thing about Americans accepting that this is how it’s got to be, though, faded a little bit. CBS News reported, quoting from Springsteen: “Born in the USA”. And that, we know, was a concession due to commercial ties — we wish it were different. But life, it seems, asks us to look around and eventually focus on the local.

Maybe people outside America can’t comment on the life that Americans live. But it’s at least surprising how certain Americans have the power to determine what the rest of the world thinks and feels, but nobody riots.
